Skycracker Prison

It always amazes me how Skylanders manages to reinvent itself each year. Now entering its fourth iteration, the series that invented the toys-to-life genre is once again adding a fresh wrinkle and, of course, action figures to its new game.

“How do we push that innovation more?” said Jeff Poffenbarger, Toys for Bob executive producer. “We’re ahead of the field. What if we reverse the magic? What if you can take the digital toy, in the physical world.? We’re going to be bringing life to toys.”

And that’s how Skylanders Trap Team was born. The game once again returns players to Skylands, where Kaos has another a plan to take over the world. He realizes that the reason for his defeats was the lack of powerful allies, so he decides to bust out the inmates from Cloudcracker Prison.

With all these villains running around Skylands, it’s up to the Trap Masters and the Skylanders to recapture them.
